Hi folks,
I just picked up a 1989 Pearson 27. Two weeks ago before we sailed the vessel home, a wonderful four-hour journey to port, I had some work done to re-bed the steering column as there was a leak into the aft cabin. During the process, the vendor needed to disconnect the pedestal and the feet for binical guard and then reconnected the steering when done. I also had to have the tie-rod shortened (another story).
I've asked the vendor to come back and fix the issue as I believe it was likely caused by their work. In case, the refuse to honor their work, and for my own understanding, has anyone else has done had to reconned the rudder to the steering pedestal? If so, any advice on how to go about getting it done.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Joseph
